to Arthur Knowlton, Farmington, Maine.
"We are at the station in Boston & have had some coffe. [sic] Now we are going to get a taxi and go to the hotel. Love, Irma."
Would that fit into a tweet? I don't use twitter so I know there's a limit on characters, but not what the limit is.
Irma (who is traveling with her?) could be writing from either North Station or South Station in Boston. If she was writing home, then it would be North Station. The Mass. Highway Dept. has a great photo taken within months of her postcard. Think of the haze and dirt from the coal-fired steam locomotives.
Did I mention I love Google, and finding information and images so easily?
